Can't get mod_ruby to work

Hi all,

I'm trying to use mod_ruby to serve a Ruby On Rails application. The 
applications currently works with dispatch.cgi. I'm running Ubuntu Gutsy 
and installed ruby, mod_ruby and rails using apt-get. This package only 
comes with a ruby.load configuration file, which loads mod_ruby, but 
does nothing more. I've created a ruby.conf file, based on the 
information on the site. However as soon as I add 'RubyRequire 
apache/ruby-run', the server stops responding. It accepts the 
connection, but never handles the request. This is not only for ruby 
scripts, but for all requests, even for static content. I do not get any 
report in the error log.

Does this make sense to someone? I can't retrieve info, so I'm stuck.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Best regards,
Arnold Daniels
